On my fanfiction's place in the canon universe [Season 6 Spoilers] · 3:31am Oct 25th, 2016

I just watched the Season 6 Finale today...
If you haven't seen it yet, you should. It was absolutely amazing. Loved every second of it. Also, just stop reading this blog post. Don't come back until you've seen the S6 Finale.

Project DYES next chapter postponed · 1:04am Oct 3rd, 2016

So I'm typing this from a hospital bed... Got a serious infection on my left hand that needs surgery, so I'll be transferring to a proper hospital for that tonight (ambulance ride hype!) . Point is... I wanted to put up Chapter 5 tomorrow night but it looks like I'll be in the hospital and not with my laptop so yay... Luckily this whole blog thing works from my phone, plus my left fingers are still functioning.

Well, that's done... · 12:45am Sep 1st, 2016

So Wretched Hive 3 (RATED M FOR MATURE) and The Unseen (RATED T FOR TEEN) had been sitting on my proofreaders' backlogs for a while. I kinda just got sick of it and published them myself. I mean, I read through them like 5-6 times each before putting them up here, so I think they turned out fine. Nothing against my pre-readers; they got lives busier than mine. (And it's not like they didn't even touch the stories, they did but it was just once.)

That finale got me thinking... · 7:53am Dec 1st, 2015

Seeing the alternate timeline where Chrysalis had won and the remaining ponies were hiding out in the forest... It got me thinking about my stories. Like, how my characters and story arcs would be altered by this complete change of history. The more I looked into it, the more interesting it got. So, let me cut to the chase here:

The Wretched Hive shall return... · 6:48pm Jun 17th, 2015

I'm gonna be honest, when I published "Escape from the Wretched Hive" I expected it to fail. I expected it to not be at all creepy, scary, or disturbing enough for any hope of revisiting.

Then it got Five Likes within two and a half weeks. That's... that's huge for me. I'm not even close to a popular writer. My second most recent story has been out for over a month and only has Five Likes to show for it. I seriously can't just sit here and do nothing about this!

Questions about The Unforeseen? · 3:15pm Mar 14th, 2013

I'm not going to sit around and pretend that "The Unforeseen" was a super easy read. And I'd prefer that huge spoilers not make it into the comments section... so if you have any problems/concerns/questions with ANY part of the story; whether it be a character, the plot, or one of Foresight's many haiku poems; I can try to explain it in greater detail. I'll admit, I tried to write a story that could be read multiple times and therefore I might have skipped some small details. So if anything

Christmas Break? · 5:44pm Dec 14th, 2012

Maybe a break from school, but hay if I'm just going to sit around playing video games! If you're not already aware, I've started writing a "sequel" to The Changeling Chronicles. All I can tell you right now is that it will be called "The Unforeseen." I'm a little over halfway through the plot and it's already over 16k words. I hope (but can't guarantee) to make this story my Christmas present to you all! I could give more details, but I think I'll let my work speak for itself. Thank you

About The Changeling Chronicles... · 9:14pm Sep 17th, 2012

I figure my few loyal readers deserve an update as to what's been going on over all this time. You'll be happy to know that Book 3 of The Changeling Chronicles is on the precipice threshold brink almost done!! At least... the First Draft is almost done. I'll post each Act as it passes the thorough inspection that is the proofreading process. This could take a few weeks, since I'm in college and have a life outside of both class and FiMFiction.
